Question 1.
In the given figure, ABDE is a parallelogram, find the area of the trapezium ACDE.

Solution:
In the given figure,
ABDE is a parallelogram and ACDE is a trapezium
whose bases are 13 m and height = 6.5 m
Area = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) (Sum of parallel sides) × Height
= \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) (13 + 7) × 6.5 m²
= \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) × 20 × 6.5 = 65 m²

Question 2.
In the given figure, the length of the rectangle is 28 cm. Find the area of the shaded region.

Solution:
In the given figure,
Length of rectangle = 28 cm
Then diameter of each circle = \(\frac { 28 }{ 2 }\) = 14 cm
and radius = \(\frac { 14 }{ 2 }\) = 7 cm
Breadth of rectangle = 14 cm

Question 3.
In the given figure, ABCD is a square of side 14 cm. A, B, C, and D are centers of circular arcs of equal radius. Find the perimeter and the area of the shaded region.

Solution:
In the given figure, ABCD is a square of side 14 cm
Area of square = (Side)² = (14)² = 196 cm²
Now radius of each quadrant = \(\frac { 14 }{ 2 }\) = 7 cm
Area of 4 quadrants = 7 × \(\frac { 1 }{ 4 }\) × πr²
= \(\frac { 22 }{ 7 }\) × 7 × 7 = 154 cm²
Area of shaded portion = Area of square – Area of 4 quadrant
= 196 – 154 = 42 cm²
and perimeter = 4 × \(\frac { 1 }{ 4 }\) × 2πr
= 2πr = 2 × \(\frac { 22 }{ 7 }\) × 7 = 44 cm
